I have read a book called The Worst Witch written by Jill Murphy. It is the first book in the series about the witch Mildred Hubble. The book has got 106 pages and several pictures.

Mildred goes to a school called Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches. The school lies at the top of a high mountain and looks like a prison. There, Mildred gets into trouble every day. There is someone that she doesn't like, Ethel. She is always right on the spells and Mildred is wrong every time. One day Mildred turns Ethel into a pet but something goes wrong.I liked the book because I liked the witches, the story was very good and I can't wait until I am going to read the next book. If you like Harry Potter you are going to like this book too. From 6 to 13 i think you can be interested in these books. Olivia

I read a book called Zombies andTommy Donbavand wrote the book. It was about a boy and his little sister. They where at the graveyard visiting their dead grandpa´s grave, when they suddenly heard a noise. Thats how they met Jake, a zombie who´s been dead for 60 years. All the zombies were going to have a party and they send Jake to fix some snacks and drinks.
So the children helped Jake with the snacks and the drinks.

I read the book out loud to my brother Anders and we think that it was good. Anders thinks that the best thing in the book is that the zombies likes lemonade and gives the book 4/5 goldstars. I think that the best thing about the book is that it is a happy suprise in the end and I also give the book 4/5 goldstars.

I would recommend this book for people who likes books that´s a bit scarry and funny but has a happy end.

Asterix and The Great Crossing is about the chiefs shield-bearers has eiting fish from Unhegienix. The shield-bearers has become ill so the chief most do the shield-bearers job. The chief is nagging on Unhegienix,
Unhegienix said if they want to have frech fish they most wait to that comes more fish. When Unhegienix said that so in the same time it is someone ho sais no, that is Getafix. He need to have frech fish in the magic potion which gives superhuman strength, Getafix have only a little bit magic potion so he need to do more on forthwith. Asterix and Obelix said that they can go and fish in the sea. Asterix and Obelix take a boat, a net and then they go out and fish in the storm. Asterix said to Obelix:- Throw the net.
Obelix throw the net but he is not fix the net in the boat so the net is away. In the desired thet are a new storm and that storm is broke the boat. In the water they find a tree so they floated with it. Then they come to land but they don´t know were they was. They have come to a land with romans(they thought that but that is indians). The take a net and then they take a new boat and fish on the way home.

The story is about a carnivore plant named Elizabite. In the beginning a
botanist named Doctor White. He wants to take Elizabite home, but then he tries
to take her Elizabite bites Whites finger. After that he tries to take her with
a Butterfly
net and he takes her home. I’m not telling more because
if I do it it`s not fun to read the book.

I like the book because i think carnivorous plant is intresting and cool.

I recommend it to you if you are not so good at reading English
because the book is thin.By: Isak

Rent - a - genius

Sophy is a smart and genius girl. She thinks that people could use her advice. For 50 pence she will solve any kind of problem. From red spots on your face to really dirty work.

What do you think you can do to get rid of red spots on your face? Sophy has an idea!

Rent - a - genius is a educational and exciting story.
I recommend it for kids between 8 and 10 years old who like clever stories. I don't recommend this book to kids who don't like stories without really funny plots.
I liked this book because it was exciting. One thing i did not like about this book was that it was not so funny.
